Methow Valley Citizens Council Facebookpost We hope everyone is staying safe with atmospheric river and flooding in Mazama. The river has reached spring flow levels! This warm winter atmospheric river is indicative of the weather pattern changes due to climate change, and is all the more inspiration to take action to reduce emissions and prepare locally for climate impacts.
